Dental Checkups & Cleanings for New & Existing Patients

Regular checkups and cleanings are essential when it comes to maintaining optimal oral health. During these visits, Dr. Al will thoroughly examine your teeth, gums, and the rest of your mouth for signs of decay, gum disease, or other concerns. A portion of the appointment will also be spent performing a detailed cleaning to remove built-up plaque and tartar.

Nightguards for Bruxism

If you grind or clench your teeth at night, a custom nightguard can protect your smile from the serious damage caused by bruxism. This condition can lead to worn enamel, cracked teeth, jaw pain, and headaches over time. However, a custom-fitted nightguard designed for your unique bite will provide a comfortable barrier that protects your teeth and jaw.

Athletic Mouthguards/ Sportsguards

Whether you or your loved one plays sports recreationally or competitively, a properly fitted mouthguard is an essential piece of protective equipment. Unlike bulky store-bought options, our custom mouthguards are designed specifically for you, offering superior comfort, a more reliable fit, and unmatched protection against chipped or knocked-out teeth.

Fluoride Treatment

Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps to strengthen tooth enamel and protect against decay. Following a routine appointment, a concentrated fluoride solution can be applied directly to your teeth, helping to remineralize weakened enamel and make it more resistant to cavity-causing bacteria and acid.

Dental Sealants

Dental sealants provide an extra layer of protection for your child's smile. They come in the form of a thin, protective coating that can be applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth, since they have deep grooves that can trap food and bacteria and are difficult to clean. Sealants act as a barrier against decay, helping to keep your child's molars cavity-free.

We Make Payment Easy for Families

We are happy to offer several easy ways for families to pay, including accepting and filing dental insurance claims for our patients with PPO plans, as well as flexible monthly payment plans through third-party financiers. If you have a question about payment, our team is happy to help walk you through the process and get you the important information you’re looking for.
